Hi all, looking to the group to see if I can find people with experience in this area. I've been dealing with sleep issues for a while, and have been taking 25-50mg Seroquel to knock myself out at night. Unfortunately I've been dealing with some weight gain from this, and talked to my doctor about it today. He suggested trying 25-100mg Trazodone instead of the Seroquel.

Does anyone have experience using Trazodone for sleep? AFAIK, the dose isn't high enough to really have antidepressant properties, but it may help with falling asleep. If you'd care to share your personal experience it would be helpful. I'm planning to pick up the script and try 50mg this evening. Hopefully I won't experience some of the nastier side effects I've seen on the 'net. Thanks to anyone for sharing.
